Abstract: A variable-speed pumped-storage power generat­ing system includes a variable-speed driver composed of a generator/motor (l) and a frequency converter (4) connected to an electric power system (5) and a pump/­turbine (6) driven by the generator/motor. The power generating system comprises an optimum rotation speed function generator (l2) calculating, on the basis of at least an externally applied output command signal, an optimum rotation speed of the motor for driving the pump with high efficiency, a speed detector (2) generating a speed detection signal by detecting the actual rotation speed of the motor, a speed regulator (l6) receiving the output signals of the function generator and speed detector to generate an output correction signal for decreasing the speed error to zero, an adder (l0l) adding the output correction signal to the output command signal, a comparator (l02) comparing the output signal of the adder with an output power detection signal generated from a motor output detector (40) and generating an error signal therebetween, and an output regulator (8) control­ling the excitation of the secondary winding of the motor through the frequency converter to decrease the output power error to zero, thereby controlling the output and rotation speed of the motor. The power generating system   also comprises an optimum guide-vane opening function generator (l3) calculating an optimum guide vane opening on the basis of at least the output command signal, a comparator (l03) comparing the output signal of the second function generator with a guide-vane opening detection signal from a guide-vane opening detector (70), and a guide-vane opening regulator (9) controlling the opening of the guide vanes according to the result of comparison.

Abstract: A solid state image sensor of a frequency interleave system, operable in the field storage mode, has color filters formed on a picture element portion (1) of a solid state image sensing element. The filters are selected to have such spectral characteristics as to reduce the difference in luminance sensitivities to white light among the picture element portions, resulting in reduced luminance aliasing distortion. Demodulated components of an interleaved signal are generated in the form of signals which are nearly color difference signals, enabling simplification of the signal processing circuit.

Abstract: System and method for replacing an insert unit included in an assembly located at a remote distance below a location from where the assembly can be serviced and controlled by manpower, for example an insert valve assembly (22) belonging to a subsea production system for oil and gas. In carrying out the method with said system at a subsea production site, a manipulator (1) is brought by means of a sheave (2), a hoisting cable (3), and guide wires (4, 5) down to a predetermined location on the bottom of the sea. The manipulator comprises a telescopic arm (15, 16) which is then moved towards and fixed by means of a hook (20) and a lug (21) to a valve tree (17) which supports a valve (22), the insert unit 26, of which is to be unscrewed from the respective valve housing and be replaced. A carriage (18) located in the manipulator and comprising retrac                                                         tion, aligning and fixing devices (32, 33, 34) is brought with the aid of the telescopic arm and a rail (19), located on the top side of the carriage, towards the valve tree and is fixed to retraction cones (35, 36, 37) mounted on the valve tree. This allows a moment producing tool (31), mounted in the carriage, to grapple a castellated nut (24) which fixes the insert unit to the valve housing of the valve. Thereafter, a releasing moment is applied on the castellated nut, whereby the castellated nut with the insert unit is unscrewed from the valve housing and the valve tree. The carriage with the insert unit is separated from the valve tree and is brought back via the telescopic arm to the manipulator. The insert unit of the valve is replaced by a new insert unit, either by a new insert unit stored in the manipulator and with the aid of gripping arms present in the manipulator, or by raising the manipulator to the surface where the replacement is carried out, whereafter the manipulator is again lowered and the carriage is again moved towards and fixed to the valve tree. This also allows the moment producing tool to move the new insert unit with its castellated nut towards the valve housing, whereupon a tightening moment can be applied.

Abstract: An electromagnetic identification system of the kind comprising a transmitter for generating an electromagnetic interrogation field in a detection zone, at least one passive responder (4) capable of disturbing said interrogation field, and detection means for detecting a disturbance of the interrogation field caused by a responder. The responders comprise a single receiver circuit (5) which in response to an interrogation field, via rectifier means (6), can supply energy to active digital encoding means (7) comprising a binary-code defining means, and the encoding means is arranged, in operation, through a switch means (9), to vary the electrical characteristics of the receiver circuit in the rhythm of the binary code to generate a code signal that is detectable by the detection means. The encoding means is arranged to control the switch member (9) during pre-determined periods of time for varying the electrical characteristics of the receiver circuit (5). The pre-determined periods of time alternate with intervals during which the electrical characteristics of the receiver circuit are not affected. According to the present invention, the encoding means comprise a decoding section which in response to a modulation of the interrogation field can, at least in part, change the binary code defined by the code-defining means, and there is provided a transmitter comprising a programme (21) for providing such modulation. The transmitter is arranged, in operation, to generate a modulated interrogation field during said predetermined intervals.

Abstract: In order to achieve precise linear guiding and rotational positioning of the push-button part on both parts, the push-button switch with a housing part (10) and linearly moving push-button part (30) has guide columns (20 or 40) which grip over one another and are connected to one another in a multiple line contact (24) running in the movement direction (25). The length of the line guide is variable between the rest position and the operating position of the push-button part (30), and is at its greatest in the latter. The contact surface (19) of the fixed mating contacts (18) is designed as a flat sliding surface for the sprung contact arms (37). The friction which is connected with the inevitable sliding movement when the contacts close results in self-cleaning of the contacts and damping of bouncing movements. As a result of precise guiding and damping of the movement, the contact bouncing time is decisively reduced (even when the push-button is operated eccentrically). …<??>A snapping mechanism, which has to be overcome on operation, advantageously consists of a permanent-magnet cover plate (15) on the housing part and an anchor plate (35) on the push-button part.
